Haunted Stories: Berwick and Northumberland

Berwick Barracks  |  31 October 2025

Age: 13+

Join us this Halloween for an evening of haunting tales and ghostly folklore from Berwick and Northumberland.

For one night only, step away from the outside world for an enthralling 45 minutes of traditional storytelling with Becca Harris from Spindrift Stories.

Drawing on her deep research into the region’s myths and legends, Becca will transport us back in time to meet the spectres that once stalked the North East of England. We’ll encounter the ghoulish demon that plagued Berwick 900 years ago, the phantoms that dwelt at Dunstanburgh Castle, and even the soldiers who once lived at the Berwick Barracks.

So, steel your nerves for a night of mystery and thrills in this chilling encounter with Berwick’s ghostly past.

For ages 13+, under 18s to be accompanied by an adult. If you have accessibility requirements, please contact Livingbarracks@maltingsberwick.co.uk.
